WE heard Mir. Mallett's speech last Saturday in his discussion with Mr. Bradley. We heard him pa. tiently and without prejudice. He undertook to cover the whole field and spread out so vastly in that undertaking that no one point was subjected to an argument. He made many bold assertions, some of them absolutely untrue. He denounced the inter state commerce law and said that freights had increased un- der its operations from one to three hundred per cent. It was proven on the spot that freight is from twenty ty five to forty per cent. cheaper un- der the law than before. If he knew no better he ought to inform himself before he undertakes to lead. If he did know better, and he could have known, he stated what he knew to be untrue. He said that Speaker Carlisle is not Tn favor of tariff re- duction. Carlisle himself says he is. In hls effort to effect a compromise with Mir. Randall he said he was willing to remove the revenue from tobacco, which alone yields $30, 900 per annnm. Carlisle says, "I am willing to do all this to reduce the tariff" So we simply have the word of Carlisle talking about him self, and the word of Mallett talking about Carlisle. Which shall we take? MT. Mallett said that the present administration had cost SlS0,000,000 more than any proceed ing administration. This is anoth
 CT erroneous statement. The pres. ent administration has pald of more of the national debt than any other. It has appropriated more for the

 The Blaine organs seem to think that they can injure President Cleve- land by describing him as "an as- tute and able politician The pub lie very quickly appreciates the difference between that commanding ability in politics that secures the support of a great party and adds to it's strength and the petty trickery to which small schemers resort for the sake of personal advantage or local prominence.
 There could be few things more senseless than to suppose that the people are prejudiced against able politicians. On the contrary, they respect and admire them, and they know that the world Is governed by just such men. If there ever was apprehension about President Cleve. lands success is any quarter desery, ing Of respect, 1t arose from fear that professional politicians might deceive him. But Mir.

TIE leading democrats are pretty much of one mind regarding the tar If. Every politician is confronted by one and the same enormous fact, and that is, that there will be dan gerous surplus accumulated in the treasury within few years. The question now agltating the thinking public is: "How shall we dispose of the surplus?" This enormous sur plus may be disposed of in more ways than one. It may be done by pensioning ex soldiers, but if this is done to what extent may it be done, and how can limit be fixed? It may be disposed of by the Blair bill, that is by distributing it out among the states for educational purposes. Then there will arise: ssIs that right? Is it equality?" The accumulation of the surplus may be prevented by a tariff measure that will reduce taxation. The democracy thinks this is the only wise and safe way to manage the matter. And it is proposed that steps in this direction be taken the coming winter. Speak CT Carlisle says, that the necessity of immediate reduction of the reve- nue in order to prevent large accu
 mutations is so apparent that con gress can not afford to further delay consideration of this question. Breckinridge of Kentucky, and Breckinridge of Arkansas, and Me Millen, of Tennessee, have uttered the same sentiments. They all see the dilemma that we will fall into without a revenue reduction. These great statesmen all see in the near future the danger that awaits our nation, and they are ready to intro duce and fight for measure that will obviate danger and trouble. They are ready to begin thls fight at once, and it is our opinion that the democracy of this country will very soon be called upon to put itself Tn line with it's great leaders.

TIE first step in the downfall of Horse Claims Harvey was the bor- rowing of $30,000 at the death of his father, claiming that his part Of the estate would enable hlm to replace it. The principal difficulty involved, the one that lead to the rum, was a disposition to use more money than he was earning. His desires had been enlarged to very huge propor- tions, and instead of circumseribing his desires by the amount of his ia- come and phiosophically living within his means, he borrows $50, 900 and steals $50,000 to replace it. Herein lies the secret of many a wrecked life. Greed for gain, and a determination to gain at all hazards, leads thousands to ruin annually.

Hon. K. M. T. Hunter Dead.

Arkansas Democrat. Richmond, Va, July 20.-lnformation was re- ceived here last evening that the Hon. k. M. T. Hunter died at his home, Fount Hill, Essex county. Mir. Hunter was one of Virginia's s most eminent citizens for many years before and during the late war. He was born in 1909. He served several terms in the National house of representatives, being elected speaker of that body in 1889. Sub sequently he was elected United States senator, and made chairman of the finance committee in 1S49, which position he held until the opening of war. He gave Doulass q close run for the presidential nomina- tion at the national Democratic con- vention at Charleston in 1860. Dur
 ing the war he served as confeder- ate secretary of State and confederate senator, Re was also a member of the peace commission which met

TIE greatest men in the party are constantly declaring their confidence in Cleveland as a safe administrator of public affairs. While he has not done everything the leaders of the party wanted him to do, and has done some things they thought not best to be done, yet he has administered the affairs of government safely, and as a result, if the people are not alto gether happy, they are prosperous. And the solid men of the country, who have no ax to grind, are becom- ing quite satisfied since they are able to see the tendency of the gov ernment. Mir. Cleveland's present term will give him sufficient expert ence to enable him to become one of the very best officers in the whole country sAnd by the time the sec ond term is fairly under way, demo- crats will be in offices, that is, tap pointment offices

Prophets of Evil.

Washington Press The Nashville correspondent of the Little Rock Democrat sizes up Jesse Harper's speech there Monday in the follow ing
 Harper is man of good informa tion, IS reckless in his assertion, and uses "cuss" words in hls speeches, and IS especially hard on those that worship in fine churches"
 Singular enough, after painting "blue ruin" all over the country, this class of bowling demagogues have not single practical remedy to suggest. Their cry is, "Vote the labor ticketr' as if any ticket or any party could make the individual prosperous. He must rely on his own exertions for that, supported by economy and good business judg- ment. Those who turn loose of these and run to legislation for sup port and prosperity are on the road to the poor house. There are men in every community who are prosper ous and whose conditions refute the gloomy pictures of distress painted by these prophets of evil; but they did not sit down and wait for the government to make them so. There are other men conspicuous as fail. ures in every community They are never wiling to take their faults and misfortunes themselves, but seek to place them on the government

Post Dispatch: The Lebel gun, with the French Government ex poets to have all it's infantry regi- ments armed before next spring, is described as a small, light repeater rifle of small caliber, from which is sent steel projectile shat goes through an eight inch brick wall at a distance of 800 yards, or through the body of q man at the distance of mlle. The powder used is a new invention, the composition of which is a well guarded Government secret. There is no smoke when the gun is fired and it is said to pro. ject the steel bullet with wonderful accuracy the distance of one mile and half. The cartridges are so light that 220 rounds can be carried by the soldier more convenintly than ll6 of the old style cartridges. With such a gun in her possession but one thing could keep France from going to war with Germany, and that would be the arming of the Germans with weapon as much superior to the Lebel gun as the German needle gun was to the chas- sepot.

Little Rock Democrat: There are but two political parties in this coun- try and there is no necessity for an other. There IS never necessity for a new party until the principles of the old ones fall behind the pro gress of the age or In any way fail to subserve the primary interests of the country. This is not true as to the Democratic party of this coun- try. The attempt is being made to build up labor party when the truth is the Democratic party is a "labor party" or at least it offers all the labor organizations demand. The labor plank in the Ohio plat form is bat a reiteration of the voice of the party. It is all that could be asked, and the party will redeem faithfully redeem it's pledges. It has redeemed the pledge so far as It has had the power to do so. But read the Ono plank:
 "Labor being the chief factor and great conseryator Of free and liberal institutions should enjoy it's full share of the common benefits desired therefrom; therefore, we favor such restraints of centralization and en croachments of corporate power as will bring best possible protection to honest labor, and at the same time conserve the interest of honest ly employed capital"
